Cause and solution
You are using paper that is outside the specified size and
weight range.
→ Use paper within the specified range.
Paper curled or damp.
→ Do not use curled or crimped paper. Replace with dry paper.
During periods when the machine is not used for a long time,
remove the paper from the tray and store it in a dark place in a
bag to prevent moisture absorption.
You did not set sufficient margins in the paper settings of
your application.
→ The top and bottom of the paper may be dirty if the margins are
set outside of the specified print quality area.
→ Set the margins in the software application within the specified
print quality area.
Black dots or smudges appear on the printed output.
→ Run fixing cleaning mode. The letter "V" is printed on a sheet of
paper and the fusing unit is cleaned.
The paper loaded in the tray is not the same size as that
specified in the printer driver.
→ Check if the "Paper Size" options suit the size of the paper loaded
in the tray.
If the "Fit To Paper Size" setting is activated, make sure that the
paper size selected from the drop-down list is the same as the
size of the loaded paper.
The orientation of document setting is not correct.

the "Image Orientation" option is set to your requirements.

settings for the application you are using. Also check if the print
settings are specified correctly to suit the paper size.

original positions
